Assetto Corsa Competizione – More PS4 PRO Gameplay Footage & Info

This Tuesday, Kunos Simulazioni and 505 Games will be releasing the popular Assetto Corsa Competizione racing simulation title on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Ever since the introduction of the console version of ACC, the community has been divided into believers and non-believers regarding the playable performance and framerate of a potential console version. To get all features on par with the PC version of the game Kunos and 505 Games opted to let the console game run at 30fps, and limit the grid to 20 cars. ( The Xbox One version will run at 30fps at a lower 1600×900 (900p) resolution.

Jason of the GametechUK YouTube channel puts the upcoming PS4 version of Assetto Corsa Competizione through its paces and explains to the viewers why the 30FPS frame limit and capped 20 car grid should not be a game-breaker.

In this very long, but informative video stream, Jason focusses on the positive sides of the release and points out that this version of ACC is not a dedicated console release but a one to one port from the PC version of the popular PC racing simulator.

In essence, the developers had to make a very simple choice. Leave all the features, visuals, and physics of the original PC version intact, and limit the framerate to 30FPS, or provide the console crowd with a simplified, and a very cut-down version of the simulation resulting in a mediocre Console game with high framerates?

Whatever your personal preferences might be regarding these choices, we are sure the console users will love the result.

The ACC console release will be available both digitally and via physical retail on June 23rd, 2020. Players who pre-order the console edition of ACC will also gain access to the Intercontinental GT Pack DLC on release day, which expands the Assetto Corsa Competizione experience to include the official Intercontinental GT Challenge.

The PC version of the game is available via Steam for €39,99. The Intercontinental GT Pack DLC for Assetto Corsa Competizione is available via Steam for €14,99 ( $14.99 – £12.49).
